What’s All This, Then?

Link En Fuego is a repository of arbitrarily random (and often useful) links that I found on my many web forays. The subject can range from Dada to dabberlocks, Dacron to ducksauceology.

I opened it because I believe that “it [is] worth pursuing every disparate field [of knowledge] precisely because the fields were not disparate, but branches of knowledge intimately connected to one another…”

and most other things

Would those aforementioned be so kind as to leave a comment to this posting?

The reason why this sparked my interest was because today I saw in the blog stats page that somebody stumbled here from the Ignorant Intelligence blog—which features excellentbitsofwisdom posted on garish, web safe-y kind of colorbox set in Arial type—while I don’t remember to have ever linked there.

Anyway, that blog is also worthy of our coverage, and I thank you the author ‘adnohryak’ for visiting here. Good night.

To intermission, two jokes that, despite what the post title said, will also strike a rhyming note to ad people.

Q: How many art directors does it take to change a light bulb?A: Does it have to be a light bulb?

Q: How many copyeditors does it take to change a light bulb?A: The last time this question was asked it involved art directors. Is the difference intentional? Should one or the other instance be changed? It seems inconsistent.

ATTENTION: Fimoculous is a blog of the same nature as Link En Fuego, only it is much more organized—and thus may fill you up with informations that are actually useful. Its ‘Daily Links’ are topical, its ‘Predictions‘ similar to Link En Fuego (it even attempts to predict the matter of prediction itself), and its other sections neatly arranged to the finest order. I do have to warn you, though, that the -ulous suffix is nothing like the Web 2.0 URLs that had sprung up everywhere. With words like “self-perpetuating ecology”, “mono-parasite” and “homo-symbiosis” appearing in succession to each other—in one single paragraph—as well as the author’s ability to capture gems like this in picture, Fimoculous is worthy of Link En Fuego’s coverage.
